Ah, but that is before tomorrow's rain delays matters further. . .

And they are saving Booty & Stretch until Thursday for me (unless they put it on a show court)

That was a phenomonally entertaining match that distracted me from revision for many hours!

Both players played brilliantly (bar moya's first set, and henman's second set) and to use a cliche, it's a shame someone had to lose, but i'm glad it was MOYA! Credit to carlos, he really upped his game and played brilliant grass court tennis. Some of his serving and volleying on Monday was trop-draw and his second serve's to save match points were exceptionally brave.

Henman played really well as well and he could win a couple more matches, looking at his draw.

Managed to get Centre Court tickets yesterday having bought them the night before on the net for face value (saves queuing overnight!!)..

Fantastic to see the conclusion of the Henman match and was so lucky to see 8 hours of tennis with no interuptions.. Saw bits of Boggo, Childs who were both getting served off the court. Baltacha had a really good fight but was always up against it.

Just love the first couple of days when you can get so close to the action on the outside courts. Watched Berdych, Karlovic, Santoro, Clement v Mahut, Youzhny, Soderling and loads of others.

By the way the Aussies were out in force yesterday and were very vocal in the Arthurs match...unfortunately for Boggo they went straight from that game to cheer on the Gooch!!

I'm hoping the next match will be Thursday, as then (floods permitting) I should be following the match on Henman Hill.
Men's doubles kick off, too: [...]No sign of Booty & Stretch, or Goody & Hutch, though...

Wonder if Goody'll be in the right frame of mind tomorrow after all that messy business with Lundgren... cry

Well, you have your wish as far as B&S are concerned: fifth match on Court 2 tomorrow (11am start). Timmy's back in action against López in the first match on Centre (usual 1pm start)!
